I've been convinced to build my own NAS again instead of going with a Synology and I'm thinking there are probably parts that don't matter if you buy used vs new but I'm curious what your thoughts are?

Power supply and case I've always bought new. Everything else has been 100% used enterprise parts off eBay, or used hand-me-downs from my gaming rig. No issues in 15 years doing this.
Got any good key words to make sure I’m finding desirable used enterprise stuff?
I always shop with specific model numbers I'm looking for based on research.
